wording of the proposed Texas Bill
REO, you are right the current Texas law makes it illegal to own a gambling establishment or take, arrange, bets between people and taking a fee.

The proposed Bill mentions "electronic gaming machines" well obviously most machines in casinos are electronic. I think they are eluding to electronic internet gaming but the Bill does qualify the meaning as is extremely vague.

This is why I played dumb in my email and asked if it referred to Gambling Establishment in our State.

I love how these JOKERS make laws that benefit themselves. They must think we are all idiots when they say gambling is a moral issue corrupting the family and the like and then allow gambling within the STATE.

I see so many people cash their paycheck and buy 100s of lotto tickets scratching them before they even leave the store. Now thats sad!!!!the chance of winning anything is probably a trilliion to 1

Any law enforcement officers a member on this site? please pm me
